Sahih al-Bukhari 3224
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، أَنَّ نَافِعًا، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ حَشَوْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وِسَادَةً فِيهَا تَمَاثِيلُ كَأَنَّهَا نُمْرُقَةٌ، فَجَاءَ فَقَامَ بَيْنَ الْبَابَيْنِ وَجَعَلَ يَتَغَيَّرُ وَجْهُهُ، فَقُلْتُ مَا لَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. قَالَ " مَا بَالُ هَذِهِ الْوِسَادَةِ ". قَالَتْ وِسَادَةٌ جَعَلْتُهَا لَكَ لِتَضْطَجِعَ عَلَيْهَا. قَالَ " أَمَا عَلِمْتِ أَنَّ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ لاَ تَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ صُورَةٌ، وَأَنَّ مَنْ صَنَعَ الصُّورَةَ يُعَذَّبُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَقُولُ أَحْيُوا مَا خَلَقْتُمْ ".
Muhammad narrated to us: Makhlad informed us: Ibn Jurayj informed us, from Ismaʿil ibn Umayya, that Nafiʿ related to him that al-Qasim ibn Muhammad related to him, from ʿAʾisha (may Allah be pleased with her), who said: I stuffed a cushion for the Prophet (ﷺ) with figures, making it like a small pillow. He came and stood between the two doors, and his expression began to change. I said, ‘What is wrong, Messenger of Allah?’ He said, ‘What is this cushion?’ I said, ‘A cushion I made for you to recline on.’ He said, ‘Did you not know that angels do not enter a house containing an image, and that whoever makes an image will be punished on the Day of Resurrection and told, “Give life to what you have created”?’
Translation notes
The English witness specifies animal pictures; the Arabic says ‘figures/images’ without that qualification.
